General Notes

Note

The AT-1000pro replaced the original AT-1000 in 2008. Beyond the obvious cosmetic changes, the biggest changes are the addition of 6 meters, a two-position antenna switch, and 2000 memories. SPECIFICATIONS – Continuous frequency coverage 1.8 to 54 MHz (Including MARS, CAP, etc). – Transmit Power Rating, 1.8 to 30 MHz: – Single Side Band: 1000 watts – CW: 750 Watts – Digital (RTTY/Packet/PSK31, etc): 500 Watts – Transmit Power Rating, 50-54 MHz: 250 watts, all modes. – Minimum power required for tuning: 5 Watts – Maximum power while tuning: 125W – Built-in relay protection will prevent relay operation when: – Greater than 200 watts input power under any load. – Greater than 150 watts input power when load is 3:1 SWR or greater. –  Built-in two position antenna switch. –  3” cross-needle illuminated Power/SWR meter with dual power scales, 0-100 and 0-1000 watts. Selectable Peak and Average power display. – 2000 memories per antenna port for instantaneous band changing. – Microprocessor-controlled Switched L tuning network. – Fine tune controls for manually adjusting capacitance and inductance. – Time required for tuning: 200 ms for memory recall; 10 seconds average full tune; 30 seconds maximum full tune time. – Built-in frequency sensor allows instant recall of previously-tuned frequencies. – Tunes 6 to 1000 ohm loads (About 10:1 SWR), or 16 to 150 ohm loads on 6M (3:1 SWR) – For Dipoles, Verticals, Vees, Beams or any Coax Fed Antenna. – Includes 6 foot DC power cable, Icom interface cable, and 300 W rated coax cable to use to connect your exciter to the tuner.
